You know what would be good? If the mods cracked down on Flamebait.
This is a political discussion board, they should have enough experience to know the difference between controversy and outright trolling.
Trolling like this Clicky (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=139358&start=0)
Its not that I find this topic particularly baitish. Its just the bait tends to generate the most replys. More replys means more traffic, and more traffic means more connection Timeouts.
Why should we suffer So some fool can inflate his ego by starting a shitstorm? I think that Mods should read tese threads (Because they will already be a few pages long before they get to them) And if there is no potential for meaningful debate or its all just going around in circles the topic should be deleted and the creator be warned.
